REMOTE SWITCH

The 345-6196-04 is a genuine Textron Aviation remote switch used to make or break an electrical circuit. It fits the Skyhawk and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN 7A994, weighs 0.07 lbs, and measures 2.1 (L) x 1.95 (W) x 1.4 (H) in. Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the 345-6196-04 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records. Because the Cessna Skyhawk and Skylane aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants. Electrical and electronic components are defined by exact ratings and characteristics, so the specified part keeps the circuit performing as engineered. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated. An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk. Built by Textron Aviation, whose Cessna line was founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and joined Textron in 1992, this part carries one of general aviation's most storied names. The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is the most-produced aircraft in history, with more than 44,000 built since 1956, and remains in production under Textron Aviation.
